yeah 4A is a huge division here in the lone star state. the only thing that concerns me is his teams schedule. see, he is from wichita falls, which is a big city, but there is nothing around it. im serious. the only reason its so big is because there is an air force base there. he doesnt go to a school in the dallas metroplex or the houston or austin area where all the most noted talent is, so i dont think hes played very many teams with great defensive backs. now i could be wrong of course, he could be awesome, but i just wanted to note that some of the competition his team has played has been pretty weak.

He may not have played great DB's, but a 6'6'' guy with speed would be nice to have.

this is true also, but i said that about mcknight and stovall with their heights would be great also, and so far they have yet to break out.

Stoves and McKinght were under utilizied by Ty. Weis will find a way to get them the ball. Look what he did in New England

Yeah but I think this position can wait tell next year when we have a better chance at a 4 or star recruit.We have everyone except for shelton back plus vaugh from last years class.Stack the ol and dl these are the guys that have to take a year or so to get bigger and understand the blocking.I believe it is easier for a wr or impact skilled player to come in and make an immedite impact(walker).I just don't think this guy is impotant as he is making himself out to be.

I've watched some video of him, reminds me a little of Keyshaun Johnson, Big, good hands and a little on the slow side.

Nelson's physical but does lack the speed that a Maurice Stovall has. Nelson runs a 4.6 40, but if he runs his routes well and plays physical at the college level he should be good.

Hord has the speed and decent size, Hord too me looks like a gem.

Tom Lemming loves Nelson, has him as the 6th best WR. Has Hord as the 16th.

yeah thats true. ty should have definitely given these guys more passes. he actually might have hurt them in the long run by not using them as much as he could, they probably could have developed faster had he not been so freakin conservative.
